Tips from the community
Malbork Castle is, by some estimations, the largest single castle complex on the planet. Raised by the Knights of the Teutonic Order way back in the 13th century, it looms like something out of Game of Thrones above the glistening waters of the Nogat River. You’ll probably need a whole day to explore the sprawling 52 acres that are dominated by the citadel. Walking through, you’ll get glimpses of Gothic portals, portcullises, crenulated keeps, and open courtyards peppered with sculptures.
